Answer:

40 fluid ounces of lemonade.

Explanation:

Amanda uses the recipe shown to make punch for a family party.

Amanda's punch recipe 7 parts mixed fruit juice 2 parts lemonade.

7 + 2 = 9 parts

She will need to make 180 fluid ounces of punch.

she will need lemonade = (180/9) × 2

= 20 × 2

= 40 fluid ounces lemonade

She will need fruit juice = (180/9) × 7

= 20 × 7

= 140 fluid ounces fruit juice.

Amanda will need 40 fluid ounces lemonade to make 180 fluid ounces of punch.
